Since Phoenix has a large cross-section of the country for residents, soda/pop might depend on which part of town, who you associate with. I lived there until 1986, was around many “natives,” they all said pop. But the transplants brought their culture and language with them.

I’m orginally from north Chicago – I have always called it pop as well as my family and friends. I have moved to Arizona a few years back though and everyone calls it soda!! I personally still call it pop after I moved cuz just to see the reactions of other people. I did get a crazy look from a few people but 95 percent of the people here in AZ at least know what I am talking about when they hear pop!! It’s pretty funny I thought ha

Pop for the victory!!!

Here in Southwest Michigan, Coke refers to Coca-Cola. We all usually say pop.

Why would you call it something generic when ordering? If I’m speaking in general, I say soda, but if I’m ordering I just say what I actually want. I wouldn’t say coke because I don’t want coke, I want Dr. Pepper, Mtn Dew, Sprite, or whatever, which all taste better than Coke or Pepsi to me personally.
But I understand what you’re saying if you say pop, it just will sound a bit out of place to me as it’s not what I’m used to hearing.

I’m from west Illinois bordering Iowa and we all say pop. I went on a trip to Space Camp once in Alabama and when we asked where we could get a pop they thought we were asking for pipes, since they were pronounced the same way. I also asked for a regular Coke and they kept asking me “What kind?!”.
